Championship - Millwall FC vs Ipswich Town Preview & Matchday Thread

[JohnnyB]

I'll be there tonight. Just been in Paris with my wife so no clash. I have a free pass and not many games work for me so chuffed to be going.

A look at the opposition forum is quite an amusing read with many nostalgic accounts of past brawls (thankfully not with us).

[number 9]

Reports are coming in, Jackson is warming up on the pitch. Stewards are taking cover as he practices shooting!

I’ve only been to Millwall twice and both visits were horrendous but the worst by far was almost 45 years ago on 11 March 1978 when a riot broke out at The Den during our FA Cup quarter-final with Town leading 6–1. Fighting began on the terraces and spilled onto the pitch and many fans were injured with some Millwall hooligans even turning on their own supporters leaving some innocent fans bloodied. Bobby Robson famously said of Millwall fans afterward, "The police should have turned the flamethrowers on them"

I’ve never been back to Millwall since and never will, it was my most frightening experience ever at a football match.

Well I'm definitely uninspired by that team selection.

[Cabanas Blue]

Good to see Burgess back but feel a bit sorry for Fridge I wondered if he might put Fridge in for Wolfie.

[Cabanas Blue]

Well I'm definitely uninspired by that team selection.

Who would you have liked in ? I know Burns has been poor the last couple of games and Broadhead also he's not been at his best for a while.

[Bluemike]

Hutchinson and Al-Hamadi all day long, we need to win this game.

[number 9]

Chaplin dropped, but why is Broadhead starting?…probably cuz he scored. Poor Travis must be livid!

[Cabanas Blue]

Hutchinson is starting and I agree with Al-Hamadi.

[number 9]

Not too different from my lineup aside from Broadhead and Luongo

I probably would have had Travis instead of Mass, and Al-Hamada instead of Broadhead, and Axel
in alongside Burgess I’m afraid …

[marko69]

Chappers on 2nd half as major impact sub.

[Charnwood]

First Millwall corner observation, not many of our players watching the ball ?

How can you clear the ball when you don’t know where it is ?

[number 9]

Is Luongo playing back or surging forward?

[hallamblue]

Only a matter of time b4 they score I fear … very shaky in defence

We’re failing time and again to pick up the spare man on edge of our area …

[Ricco]

15 mins and haven't conceded, must be some kind of record!

[Bluemike]

3 Hladky saves in 12 minutes, another slow start, great tackle from Clarke but we look a shadow of what we were. Second best all over the pitch

[Charnwood]

Hutchinson and Al-Hamadi all day long, we need to win this game.

Hutchinson is starting and I agree with Al-Hamadi.

The only problem with Hutchinson is he never seems as effective from the start as when he comes on from the bench.

[hallamblue]

This looks like a tactical time out to me …, thank god coz we’re all over the place

[marko69]

Weathering the storm

[hallamblue]

This is MUCH better Town

[hallamblue]

What a goal !!!!!! Broady

He’s on 10 goals now !!

[Bluemike]

Great header, they can't handle Hutchinson

[Cabanas Blue]

Good goal it thought it had gone wide

[Charnwood]

What a brilliant header from Broadhead

[number 9]

Thank god Broadhead started!

[AzzurroMark]

Chaplin dropped, but why is Broadhead starting?…probably cuz he scored. Poor Travis must be livid!

That's why Broadhead started.

[Charnwood]

A good job McKenna picks the team as many on here would have had Broadhead on the bench at best.

[number 9]

That's why Broadhead started.

What do I know!
